Horas Medan - Day 2

From here - Day 1

Day 2 - A fresh morning start.
Every morning this area gonna have a morning market sell fresh vegetables, fruits and local handmade. I buy 2kg of SnakeSkin Fruit or Buah Salak for Rp8000(RM2.80) /kg, very cheap! Very fresh even i can eat buah salak like i'm eating apple. Actually this is first time i'm eating buah salak and never regret that i did.

We continue to Samosir Island by ferry, but locals refer it as boat (i think it's too big to be call a boat). Fare Rp5,000 per person. They got many pit-stop, and for that day we just going to Tomok Island (shopping souvenior) and Tuk-Tuk Island.
